More than one kind of 'causality'?

Here's a speculation:
 The model I'm working with for my theory seems to suggest 3 different
fundamental kinds of 'cause and effect'.
 The first is physical causality - motion of physical objects through space.
The second is mental causality - agents making choices which effect agents
The third is what I call 'Multiverse causality', a sort of highly abtsract
'causality' close to the notion of logical consistency/consilience - that
which ensures that knowledge has a certain ordered 'structure' to it .

Anyone have any thoughts on this?
